Well i have never hired a "Muse Viability Research VA", i have hired 3 different internet research VA's.
If you can determnte the EXACT criteria to your standards, you can get all your information cheap and easy.
Anything that requires some creative thought on the part of the VA has always been complete garbage and a waste of my $3.

heres some examples that will get you great results:
We are researching _____ aftermarker car part. Go to site xxx.com yyy.com and zzz.com, compile a list (make, model, year, engine size) of all cars that product ____ is available for.

Please create a list of manufacturers that will produce 12" x 12" copper sheet with .15" thickness. Search for companies in Canada, USA, and China. Search term that will work are "xxx" "yyy" "zzz". Send the following attached email to their sales contact. include me in the CC, forward me any replies.

Bad examples:
find out what the most popular car is to modify with ______ product

please research and send me information for grants in Canada and the USA


So if that was too long and u did not read, the gist is:
-easy but tedious task
-break up your larger task and be VERY specific
-always provide a starting point
-never ask them for something you did not spell out the process to
-clearly define the scope (or they will "work" 20 hours on it most of them not productive)

If you have never used a va b4, remember to ask for a hour estimate, always create a dummy task for them. be very choosy.
I use an hour estimate rule, i will usually take them 2x as long to do anything you can do. So if you think something would take you an hour, dont pay for more than 2 hours work on it.
protip: dont hire off elance, go there, mark down the names of the companies, and use google india (www.google.co.in) or whatever country they are in to contact them and avoid site fees.

good luck! if you need some decent workers pm me for contacts.

You said to use google india; Why not google.com?
